storm/ mt. warning

okay okay i have been told by a billion people it was time for a new blog entry and i guess you guys are right! haha :) lets seee yesterday there was this storm that came out of NO WHERE and all the winds were turning kinda circular and the clouds were spiraling and turning this turquoise-ish color (like the color of shallow tropical ocean) and apparently when it gets all the way to green that means it is going to hail and so all the aussies had to go move their cars so their windscreens (windshields) wouldnt get shattered.. then it kinda just rained little spurts that werent even that intense and it didnt get much worse than that so it was kindda reallly funny! haha BUT! the storm SOUNDED sooooo cool all the booming winds it was awesome.. we have had a couple lightening storms too recently which were pretty cool.  THEEENNN out of no where there was this AWESOME rainbow! it was a full one too! with a double ring at times! it was super funny tho because the rolling green hills here totally remind me of the shire in Lord of the Rings (and aussies even classify regions as shires they would be equivalent to our counties i thinkkk) but anyway this super bright awesome rainbow just ended in this little village of houses over on one of the hills nearby and it was too funny! the rainbow was soo bright tho that it turned the sky this yellow orange color like the oclor of smoke during a brush fire.. it was AWESOME!! and shortly after was probably the best sunset of my life :) as far as ther business goes besides the weather.. i climbed mt warning this sunday and it was amazing! it was this lil rainforest walk (they dont use the word hike here) 8.8km one way but the last part was just these good sized rocks to boulders that you had to climb up for a while (and obvi we are in the rainforest so they are wet and slippery cus they spend most of the day inside a cloud) so there was this metal chain to hold onto as you went up and down it so you wouldnt slip cus it was fairly steep.. but thats pretty much it! :)
